5 — REVENUE REQUIREMENTS

a. Licensee will have the sole authority to establish retail prices for OrbView-3 and OrbView-4 Imagery of the Territory sold to Authorized Customers located within the Territory. It is mutually agreed that such retail prices should be established at a level in which maximizes profits from sales of OrbView-3 and OrbView-4 imagery.

b. Each request for a separate image shall be considered a “tasking”; for example, a stereo image product shall be considered two taskings. Imagery of the Territory taken by the OrbView Systems satellites shall be downlinked in real-time to the Licensee Ground Facility for processing, archiving, and sale.

c. (i) Licensee agrees to pay ORBIMAGE a guaranteed amount of U.S.$5,000,000 during each Operational Period during the term hereof, for a total payment during the initial term of U.S.$20,000,000, provided that the raw imagery is transmitted in a reasonable fashion to Licensee. Such payments shall be made in arrears on a quarterly basis, and shall be in the amount of U.S.$1,250,000 per quarter in each Operational Period. The first payment shall be pro-rated as appropriate depending upon the actual Operational Capability Date. To the extent ORBIMAGE has made available the required minimum imaging window time hereunder, Licensee must pay the guaranteed amounts regardless of the imaging window time actually used by Licensee.

(ii) In exchange for the payment by Licensee of the guaranteed amounts payable in each Operational Period pursuant to Section 5.c.(i), ORBIMAGE shall reserve [****************************] seconds of imaging window time per Operational Year (based upon actual orbit time) for Licensee’s use hereunder. Licensee shall use such imaging window time in accordance with ORBIMAGE’s Standard Operating Procedures in effect from time to time, and such imaging window time shall be allocated as a single contiguous window of [**********] seconds or more per pass. Licensee acknowledges and agrees that during the period when only the Primary Satellite is operational, ORBIMAGE may at its sole discretion, expand the Territory westward in order to provide the foregoing imaging window time, subject to the rights of ORBIMAGE’s other distributors. In the event ORBIMAGE is unable to provide the foregoing imaging window time, ORBIMAGE shall make available to Licensee any imaging window time not provided for use at a later date, or credit the annual guaranteed amount for such unused imaging window time. If Licensee fails to use any imaging window time allocated by ORBIMAGE to Licensee, the imaging window time shall nevertheless be applied towards the imaging window time reserved for Licensee as described above as if actually used by Licensee, on a second by second basis. Licensee acknowledges and agrees that any remaining imaging window time shall be reserved for ORBIMAGE use. Notwithstanding the foregoing, ORBIMAGE may make available additional imaging window time for use by Licensee in its sole discretion and ORBIMAGE shall have the right to use any imaging window time reserved for Licensee hereunder to the extent that it is not utilized by Licensee. Additional imaging window time actually provided to Licensee in any Operational Period shall be applied towards the amount of imaging window time reserved for Licensee in that Operational Period, on a second by second basis. In such event, Licensee shall pay

ORBITAL IMAGING CORPORATION
CONFIDENTIAL AND PROPRIETARY INFORMATION

ORBIMAGE [********] per second of additional imaging window time provided to Licensee which exceeds the amount of imaging window time reserved for Licensee in that Operational Year. Licensee acknowledges and agrees that its right to receive imaging window time under this Section 5.c.(ii) is subject to the U.S. Governments right to receive on a priority basis hyperspectral imagery anywhere in the world from taskings of the OrbView-4 System.

(iii) It is recognized that Licensee may request imagery of areas that are outside of the communication range of the Licensee Ground Facility using the OrbView-3 System satellite or OrbView-4 System satellite recorder, as applicable, and that ORBIMAGE will use its reasonable efforts to meet such requests, subject to contractual or other obligations. In the event such imagery is provided, it shall be subject to the standard ORBIMAGE product price list as amended from time to time.

(iv) It is recognized that Licensee has the right to request imagery that is outside of the Effective Imaging Range but within the communication range of the Licensee Ground Facility, using either the Primary or Secondary Satellite. In such case ORBIMAGE shall use its reasonable efforts to meet such requests, provided such request can be integrated into the imaging window time allocated to Licensee pursuant to Section 5.c.(ii). In the event that ORBIMAGE can fulfill such request, the additional time provided shall be credited to the amount of imaging window time reserved for Licensee for that Operational Period.

d. ORBIMAGE shall invoice Licensee on a quarterly basis for the guaranteed amount set forth in Subsection (c) above. All invoices shall be paid within 30 days of receipt. In the event Licensee fails to make payment within the required period, ORBIMAGE, at its discretion, may assess a finance charge at the prime rate charged by Xxxxxx Guaranty Trust Company of New York at the date of invoice plus 5% per annum. Annual license payments related to subsequent satellites that may be incorporated into the OrbView Systems will be the subject of future negotiations.

e. In the event that the OrbView-3 System satellite and/or the OrbView-4 System satellite becomes incapable of providing imagery substantially in accordance with Attachment B and ORBIMAGE is unable to cure such failure within 60 days from the date on which ORBIMAGE provides Licensee of written notice thereof, then the parties shall renegotiate in good faith the guaranteed minimum amounts payable pursuant to Section 5(c)(i) above. If ORBIMAGE and the Licensee are not able to agree on a mutually acceptable reduction in the guaranteed amount within 60 days after the date of said notice, either party shall have the right to terminate this Agreement with immediate effect by written notice to the other, provided that such notice must be delivered to the other party no later than 15 days after the end of said 60-day period (or the first business day thereafter if such date falls on a weekend or holiday). In the event this Agreement is terminated pursuant to this paragraph, neither party shall have any liability to the other party hereunder except for payments due and unpaid for OrbView-3 and OrbView-4 System services through the date of termination.

CONFIDENTIAL AND PROPRIETARY INFORMATION

ATTACHMENT A
U.S. DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE OPERATING LICENSE
ISSUED TO ORBIMAGE

On May 5, 1994, the U.S. Department of Commerce issued a license (the “DOC License”) under Title II of the Land Remote Sensing Policy Act of 1992, P.L. 102-555 (the “Act”), for Orbital Sciences Corporation, on behalf of Eyeglass International, to operate a private remote-sensing space system, known as “Eyeglass”. The DOC License was subsequently amended and issued to ORBIMAGE to operate the “OrbView” system. The DOC License is valid for a period of 10 years. The major contents of the DOC License are outlined below. It is the intent of this Agreement that all of the requirements levied by the DOC License on ORBIMAGE shall also apply to the fullest extent to Licensee.

A. The DOC License is limited to the operations of a land remote-sensing space system and subject to the following terms and conditions that apply to ORBIMAGE and any subsidiary, affiliate, or contractor, as appropriate. The issuance of the DOC License does not relieve ORBIMAGE of the obligation to obtain export or other licenses from appropriate U.S. Government agencies pursuant to applicable statutes.

1. ORBIMAGE shall comply with the requirements of the Act and any applicable regulations issued pursuant to the Act. ORBIMAGE shall operate the system in a manner that preserves the national security and observes the international obligations and foreign policies of the United States. The ORBIMAGE shall at all times maintain positive control of the spacecraft including safeguards to ensure the integrity of spacecraft operations. ORBIMAGE shall maintain and make available to the U.S. Government, as requested, a record of all satellite tasking operations, for the previous year.

During periods when national security or international obligations and/or foreign policies may be compromised, as defined by the Secretary of Defense or the Secretary of State, respectively, the Secretary of Commerce may, after consultation with the appropriate agency (ies), require ORBIMAGE to limit data collection and/or distribution by the system to the extent necessitated by the given situation. During those periods when, and for those geographic areas that, the Secretary of Commerce has required ORBIMAGE to limit distribution, ORBIMAGE shall, on request, make the enhanced data thus limited from the system available exclusively, by means of government furnished rekeyable encryption on the downlink, to the U.S. Government. The costs and terms associated with meeting this condition will be negotiated directly between ORBIMAGE and DOD (for the U.S. Government) in accordance with Section 507 (d) of the Act.

ORBIMAGE shall ensure that all encryption devices used are approved by the U.S. Government for the purpose of denying unauthorized access to others during periods when national security or international obligations and/or foreign policies may be compromised.

ORBIMAGE shall use a data downlink format that allows the U.S. Government access and use of these data during periods when national security or international obligations and/or foreign policies may be compromised. ORBIMAGE shall provide sufficient documentation to the U.S. Government on ORBIMAGE’s downlink data format to assure this access.

ORBITAL IMAGING CORPORATION
CONFIDENTIAL AND PROPRIETARY INFORMATION

2. ORBIMAGE will make available to the Government of any country (including the United States) unenhanced data concerning the territory under the jurisdiction of such Government as soon as such data are available and on reasonable cost terms and conditions.

3. ORBIMAGE will make available unenhanced data requested by the National Satellite Land Remote Sensing Data Archive (the Archive) in the Department of the Interior on reasonable cost terms as agreed by ORBIMAGE and the Archive. After a reasonable period of time, as agreed with ORBIMAGE, the Archive may make these data available to the public at a price equivalent to the cost of fulfilling user requests.

Before purging any data in its possession, ORBIMAGE shall offer such data to the Archive at the cost of reproduction and transmission. The Archive may make these data available immediately to the public at a price equivalent to the cost of fulfilling user requests.

4. Upon termination of operations under the DOC License, ORBIMAGE will dispose of any satellite in space in a manner satisfactory to the President. To meet this condition and to deal with any circumstances involving the satellite’s end of life/termination of mission, ORBIMAGE shall obtain a priori U.S. Government approval of all plans and procedures to deal with the safe disposition of the satellite (e.g., burn on reentry or controlled deorbit).

5. ORBIMAGE shall not change the operational specifications of the satellite system from the application as submitted, which would result in materially different capabilities than those described in the application, without filing an amendment as specified in paragraph C.3 of the DOC License.

6. ORBIMAGE shall notify the National Environmental Satellite, Data, and Information Service (NESDIS) of any significant or substantial agreement that ORBIMAGE intends to enter with a foreign nation, entity, or consortium involving foreign nations or entities at least 60 days before concluding such agreement. Significant or substantial agreements include, but are not limited to, agreements which would provide for the tasking of the satellite and its sensors, provide for real-time direct access to unenhanced data, or involve high-volume data purchase agreements. NESDIS, in consultation with the appropriate agencies, shall review the proposed agreement to ensure that it is consistent with the terms and conditions of the DOC License. Specifically, the agreement shall require that the foreign entity will abide by the conditions in the DOC License addressing national security and international obligations and foreign policies. If NESDIS, in consultation with appropriate agencies, determines that the proposed agreement will compromise national security concerns or international obligations or foreign policy, NESDIS will so advise ORBIMAGE.

B. Enforcement of the DOC License will be carried out in accordance with Section 203 of the Act. Any civil penalties authorized by Section 203(a) (3) will be assessed in accordance with the procedures set forth in Subparts B and C of 15 C.F.R. Part 904. Such civil penalties may be assessed in amounts up to $10,000 for any violation of the Act or any condition of the DOC License with each day of violation constituting a separate violation.

ORBITAL IMAGING CORPORATION
CONFIDENTIAL AND PROPRIETARY INFORMATION

C. Before ORBIMAGE may take any of the following actions NESDIS must grant an amendment to the DOC License. NESDIS will consult with the appropriate Federal agencies, as required by the Act, before taking final action on the amendment. ORBIMAGE must promptly file all relevant information with NESDIS if ORBIMAGE anticipates the occurrence of any of the following conditions:
